Nowadays different crimes are committed by people enticed away from the truth and deceived by devil, only to achieve their per-sonal goals and maintain their individual liberty. One of the greatest sins committed in this world is abortion. The fetus is a humanbeing from the very beginning and has the right to live. Although the mother has a right to decide what shall happen in and to herbody, her rights cannot be privileged over those of the unborn child. Therefore, the life of every human being should be respected.The most common attempts were made to show that the unborn child does not have the right to burden the female reproductiverights and women’s right to abortion. According to the universal declaration of human rights, every human being has the naturalright over his own life and this rule encompasses all members of the human society including human embryo. All of them are sup-posed to have human personality and ethical rights. Thus, it is not permitted to deprive an embryo of his future life. The purposein the current overview was to attempt an explanation of the questionable notion of the abortion. The paper puts forward a briefargument about abortion versus the right of fetus to live.

Context: Articles discussing human milk banking and the sharing of milk among women have increasingly been appearing in the medical and nursing literature in the early-21st century. The articles usually focus on Western-style milk banks, as well as informal ways of providing women’s milk to premature or sick infants and others in need of human milk. This article will review this literature within the context of Muslims living in predominantly Islamic countries and the potential effects of migration within a country or to another country on knowledge of these issues.
Evidence Acquisition: Articles consulted were sourced from the bibliographies of the author’s previous articles and the references in other articles consulted during previous research. Following that, a search of the term “milk kinship” was conducted on Medline via Web of Science and in PubMed, but all relevant articles had already been accessed.
Results: A relatively few articles have discussed these matters in the Islamic context, to acknowledge the constraints that the creation of a kinship relationship by milk under Islamic law places on how breastfeeding or breast milk is shared. Nevertheless, these issues, and how needy infants can be provided with the life-giving breast milk they need, have begun to receive attention in international journals. Yet Muslim mothers may not be conversant with the issue of milk kinship in relation to milk banking or milk donation.
Conclusions: Some recent authors have made recommendations on how human milk donation can be achieved in the hospital setting through complying with the religious requirements. Donated human milk can be used in the hospital, provided the conditions are met.
